Graphic Match

Me and my group have come up with the idea of having a female detective looking into three murder victims.This is to clearly establish her role as the female detective we then intended to use a graphic match technique to introduce the killer through juxtaposition.

We used a cross dissolve technique for the the graphic match. Which blended the female officer with the murderer.

 The screenshot on the left shows the graphic match in effect as the female detective gets up to leave the room the murderer is in the middle of sitting down getting ready to decide who his next victim will be. The Juxtaposition within this is that the female officer is about to be done for the day where as her opposite (the murderer) is just getting started.

Finally the last scene shows the murderer sitting down circling his next victim he then proceeds to do a menacing laugh which suggests that he's made up his mind.
